I'm in San Antonio for one more day, so in lieu of a new video (btw, you'll see a fantastic asparagus recipe Monday), I decided to link to this fava bean how-to. Fava beans are one of my favorite spring vegetables, but many people just don't know how to prepare them.

I just love these beans!! But I usually eat them with the skin still on (and not like you showed in the linked video where you took seeds out). I also usually cook them in their pods, in a salty water. Then the beans come out so smooth that they melt in your mouth!Mmmm.. Just love them! :)
